Jamie Stewart

Jamie Stewart is a New Zealand landscape artist who specialises in oil on canvas and linen, layering up to 40 glazes of paint to create rich, vibrant scenes that capture the essence of the country's diverse landscapes. His work focuses on the unique light and landforms of Fiordland, Western Southland, and the Central Plateau, regions he has painted for over 12 years. These realistic yet emotive paintings depict ever-changing landscapes, where mist, rain, and light create a spiritual mood. Hidden details like distant glaciers and birds slowly emerge with careful observation, echoing the stillness of nature itself. As J Stewart says, "Landscapes are my passion. I'm fascinated by the beauty of the land and its spiritual essence
